Quote New Delhi: In a major development, the Supreme Court on Monday refused to entertain a plea seeking probe and prosecution of various persons, including separatist leader Yasin Malik, for various offences including murder of over 700 Kashmiri Pandits during the height of militancy in the Valley in 1989-90. According to PTI, the order was passed by the apex court bench of Chief Justice JS Khehar and Justice DY Chandrachud, which said that almost 27 years have passed and it will be very difficult to gather evidences in cases of murder, arson and looting which had led to mass exodus of Kashmiri Pandits from the Kashmir Valley. "You (petitioner) sat over it for last 27 years. Now tell us from where the evidence will come," the bench said. Advocate Vikas Padora, appearing for an organisation 'Roots of Kashmir', said Kashmiri Pandits were forced to leave their abodes in the Valley and could not join the investigation and further submitted that the delay was there but neither the Centre nor the state government nor the judiciary took adequate note of it to do the needful. The organisation has alleged that 215 FIRs had been lodged relating to the murder of over 700 Kashmiri Pandits and none of the cases have reached a logical conclusion. Useless people this SC is filled with. They have time to interfere in cricket, but refuse to reopen this case regarding this murderer Yasin Malik. There are plenty of people who claim to be eye witnesses to his activities in Kashmir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
